Activist Godber Tumushabe has said that it is very insidious to give the impression that Kyadondo East MP Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine breaks the law
“What the regime has done is excel in adjusting the law to the extent that when you adjust to act within the law, you are seen to be breaking it,” Tumushabe said Thursday morning while appearing on NBS television.
Tumushabe, the Associate Director at the Great Lakes Institute for Strategic Studies (GLISS), said it is insidious to say that Bobi Wine is being used.
“Those in government should be able to tell us who the person is. If being used breeds crime, Bobi Wine should be able to be tried,” he noted.
